Georgetown Retro - water color -ink wash. -1964

The following water color and ink wash sketches were done from black and white pictures taken in 1964 of various street corners and roadside stalls in the area of Georgetown, Penang.
It is beginning to feel good doing these sketches as i get more and more into it.
This was the Penang i grew up wiht, it was not any better than it is today but sure as hell a whole cheaper and much more friendly.

Most people travel by busses to get around Georgetown and bus stops can be anywhere wherever there is a lamp post with a colored paint on it to signify the bus route.


Both these shops are still operating but much up graded from their past.


My sketching technique or style varies mostly depending on my mood and the tool I was using.


This scene of the Jelutong road was  taken in 1964, like the rest of these pictures, I was in secondary school thenand in 1964 I was studying at the Sek. Mengh. Sulatan Sulaiman, in Kuala Terengganu.
